2025 Audio System Wish List Time!


I’ve been doing this for years now- and it’s time for our 2025 wish list!

In 2024, I added a new power supply for my turntable- a Radikal power supply for my turntable. 

My goal for 2025, as it has been for a number of years now, is to explore and add more music. Streaming has been a fantastic way of exploring new to me music, and in some instances after streaming an album, I also wound up buying it on vinyl.

What’s your audio goal for 2025? A new preamp? A DAC? More music? 

Enjoy 🥂

@thecarpathian 

thanks for the tip.  I too hope to have time to explore at Axpona this year.  Missed last year’s show.  Darn work!

@cdc @pinwa @blackbag20  Thank you for the recommendations. They certainly have their value proposition, even though they are only rated up to Class B by Stereophile. The only sub-$5k speaker rated Class A is the MA Silver 500 7G.  Do you have experience with this particular model?  Is it that good?  

@lanx0003 I heard what I think was the Monitor Audio Platinum 300 a few years ago.  I thought it was very good indeed.  It was also something like $16K so above my price point at the time.  I've never listened to any of their other models but I would think it would be worth finding a dealer to give it a listen.
